The MEINL Byzance Dual trash crash cymbal combines the shimmering darkness of the Byzance Brilliant series with the low, earthy tones of the Byzance Extra Dry series. The added cut-out holes mean this effects crash is extremely sensitive, exploding with a lightning-fast response and very short decay. It’s great for trashy accents that don’t linger too long over the music. Marrying elements from across the Byzance spectrum, the Dual series is a study in contrasts—raw and finished, lathed and unlathed, fierce and grounded. Every cymbal is formed by lathe and hammered by hand. MEINL Byzance Dual is a high-end cymbal series for professionals and advanced students.
